Napoli rule out Balotelli move

Napoli manager Rafa Benitez has ruled out a move for striker Mario Balotelli. The Italian forward is struggling since his arrival at Liverpool last summer.

Balotelli has been hotly tipped to make a return to Serie A in January, and Napoli were amongst the leading teams in the race for the striker's agreement. Despite the reported interest of the Naples side, Napoli manager Benitez has denied that his team will make a move for the much maligned attacker.
